Conclusions on changes in the image of the feminine. Bibliography. i INTRODUCTION The ideal of femininity which developed in Renaissance painting, was a visual and psychological type which was to become the Western European Christian formu la of the feminine. This type has surv ived until the present day, so a discussion of its orIgIns can be revealing for us in the twentieth century, especially as it has been neglected in traditional art historical works. In this essay, the changes in the image of the feminine, in just under three hundred years of Florentine painting, starting with Giotto1. and ending with Raphael~· will be covered. The images will be taken from the wo rk of artists who were Florentine in training, who worked in the city or who were strongly influenced by the Florentine style of painting. I have divided the paintings I have studied into three sections. In the Religious section the paintings are mainly of Mary. The Mythologica l images refer to Greek and Roman myths and the humanistic interpretations of them. Finally, the Portrait and Genre images are se lected on the following basis: In the genre paintings they are sometimes part of works related to religion or mythology, but, in their handling, the painters treat the figures as real human beings rather than holy or mythological figures. In others they are bona fide portrait representations.3. I have made the above distinction because I expect that the gap between religio-mythological images and portraits will give some indication of the difference between the ideal and the reality for women of that time. The images will be analysed and changes noted in favoured types, gestures, expressions, movements, placing in the composition, relationships to others, favoured themes, costume, colour and symbols. I wil l point out as I proceed the effects that these elements had on the mood and tone of each image. To see the representational images of women in painting in relation to the role and position of women in everyday life in the said period, the first chapter sketches in the relevant social and economic background. 1. Giotto di Bondone, painter, c. 1266 - 1377. 2. Raphael Sanzio, painter, 1483 -1520. 3. All these images will hereafter be referred to as 'portraits.' 1. CHAPTER ONE. The idea of progress in every area of life and the Rena i ssance as a golden age was promulgated by historians from Vasari (1511 - 1574)1. onwards. These ideas of Renaissance society were emphasised parti­ cularly by the art historians of the nineteenth century. The approach of Vasari and Burckhardt2. has been followed by Mrs Brownlow Jameson 3. and Sir Kenneth Clark4. in the twentieth century. One of the unquestioned and underlying ideas of the quoted historical .,orks, is the equal position of women in Renaissance society. Burck­ hardt makes the following statement: "To understand the higher forms of social intercourse at this period, we must keep before our minds the fact that women stood on a foot ing of perfect equality with men." 5. He feels that it is misleading to pay too much attention to the diatribes against women and continues, "there was no question of 'women ' s rights' or female emanCipation, simply because the thing itself was a matter of course. ,,6. In accepting the above statements, other art historians have perpetuated the type of women that they analysed in art and assumed to have lived in the Renaissance. But women's reality was far from being equal with men's. Thp. Ren aissance did develop a new type of society7. and may have been a step forward for men, but it was not positive for women. 8. 1.

There was a break from the old feuda l society and the aristocratic hierarchy, a development of the power of the indi vidua l and inquir­ ing, scientific attitudes, as well as the power of capital over birth, which brought the middle class into power. 8. "It would seem t hat such a period of liberation and individualisa­ tion could not but be advantageous for women, yet it is Renaissance men who who remains the primary beneficiary of all the rebirths and reforms. " Peterson, K. Women Artists, p.22 "The first is that there IS less change in the noti on of women throu­ ghout the Renaissance than intellectual ferment and empirical enqu iry of var ious kinds might lead one to expect. The second is that, at the end of the Renaissance, there is a greater discrepancy between social realities and the current notion of women than at the begin­ ning." Maclean, J. The Renajssance Not jon of Woman, p.1. 2. Before it is possible to identify the changes that took place in the images of women in paintings during the period, one has to realise that they have to read against the trend towards reducing still further the few establi shed social and economic rights of women. That is, the change was relative to the gain in rights for men, who benefitted from the growth of individual freedoms, but at the same time they infringed those of woman, leading to an ever increasing gap between the rights and social power of the two sexes. The dominant ideology reduced the role of women in the society, denying working class women the right to join the guilds, reduced the sphere of influence in public and private life of middle-class women, though this latter group were somewhat less reduced than others!' This reduction of freedoms and the reasoning behind it, can be seen in litera­ ture. humanist writings and educational and religious theory. The theories are the result of other changes with the society. The acc­ elerated change which took place in the Renaissance, enforced by the deve­ lopment of early capitalism, can be seen in Florence more easily than else­ where .2. As Hauser states , "Capital rules more ru t hlessly and less troubled by scruples than ever before or after in the history of Europe." 3. The economic boom came to a climax in 1328 - 38 and led to a financial cri s is, followed by a period of stagnation. The Capitalist ideology was born, bringing with it the profit motive and middle-class virtues of con­ servative respectability. This led to be the major victims of the cu l­ tural counter-tendencies which were produced by the Renaissance society, a social structure which underwent a radical revolution. The Renaissance was predominantly a male age. Ruth Kelso remarks that the gentlemen of the Renaissance differed greatly from the knight of the Middle Ages. "but their wives would have found little to wonder at in Footnote continued from p. 1. "Women , or at least exceptionally gifted women were freer and less sub­ ject to institutional and social pressures in the middle ages than they have been under the rule of the individual which was promulgated with the Renaissance."

Women lost in the var iety of their roles and respon­ sibilities , their contribution to the economy and their legal status as compared with the Middle Ages. And because "women were paid less for jobs outside the home than they had previously earned working at home" there was a severe drop in the economic standing of women. 2. Furthermore , the imbalance in t he population favoured men .3. Because of this there were more women to compete for marriage in the case of the upper and middle class and labour outside the home, in a stagnant economy,4. in the case of the working class. The situation for women became more difficult with the decision of the fifteenth century guilds for crafts to exclude women, a right they had had before. All these factors may have been responsible for a rise in prostitution. At the same time as bureaucratised government and commercial capitalism eroded women' s roles in politics and economy and changed their position in real life, a trend developed in the ideological vision as represented by the arts, which established new and different images as compared with the Middle Ages. 5. I would like to look at diaries and theories about women, which show to some extent prevalent ideas about women held by men at the time. Most of these relate to middle class women and show how they were being more and more limited even within their home sphere. In the diaries5. one sees women becoming more subserviant to her husband, purely a homemaker who has no part in his affairs. Women were subser- 1.

Joseph’s role as spouse has been given much attention in biblical commentary, in apocryphal literature, and in the writings of Church Fathers and theologians. The Summary’s emblematic approach to the marriage of Joseph and Mary bears connection with each of these genres as well as with fourteenth and fifteenth-century Italian artistic representations of the scene. Although the Summary’s depiction of the marriage, in particular Blancus’ engraving (Plate 1), conforms to the accounts given in Scriptural and apocryphal narratives, it presents striking divergences when compared to the existing artistic tradition. While artistic depictions of the Marriage of the Virgin traditionally present the event as a publicly celebrated union observed by onlookers, most notably the disappointed unsuccessful suitors competing for Mary’s hand, Blancus “privatises” the union, thus emphasising it and ultimately marriage as a whole as sacred, dignified and divinely ordained. The engraving, along with the accompanying epigram and text de facto, successfully present to the audience a visualisation of the nature of Mary and Joseph’s marriage and of Joseph’s role as spouse.

A medium commonly used in antiquity, terracotta fell out of favor until the Quattrocento, when central Italian artists became reacquainted with it. Terracotta was cheap and versatile, and sculptors discovered that it was useful for a range of purposes, including modeling larger works, making life casts, and molding. Reliefs of the half- length image of the Madonna and Child became a particularly popular theme in terracotta, suitable for domestic use or installation in small chapels. Donatello’s Louvre Madonna presents this theme in a variation unusual in both its form and its approach. In order to better understand the structure and the meaning of this work, I undertook to make some clay works similar to or suggestive of it.

    For Immediate Release NEWS RELEASE Media Contact: Betsy Moss | 804.355.1557 | [email protected] Images may be downloaded here: www.muscarelle.org/pressimages/ Botticelli and the Search for the Divine: Florentine Painting between the Medici and the Bonfires of the Vanities to Open Feb. 11 at the Muscarelle Museum of Art at William & Mary Botticelli Venus Painting on View for First Time in United States Williamsburg, Va. (Jan. 16, 2016) -- One of only two of Botticelli’s paintings of an isolated Venus will be on view for the first time in the United States in Botticelli and the Search for the Divine: Florentine Painting Between the Medici and the Bonfires of the Vanities, a major international loan exhibition organized by the Muscarelle Museum of Art in Williamsburg, Va., in partnership with the Museum of Fine Art in Boston, and Italy’s Associazione Culturale Metamorfosi. The restless, prolific and original genius of Sandro Botticelli (1445-1510) will be explored in depth in this historic exhibition, which features sixteen of his paintings, most with life- size figures, from major museums and churches in six Italian cities, including Florence, Milan and Venice. Every phase of the artist’s long, tumultuous career is represented in the selection, by far the largest and most important Botticelli exhibition ever staged in the United States. Botticelli and the Search for the Divine will also feature six rare paintings by Botticelli’s great master Filippo Lippi, the only pupil of Masaccio. The cultural milieu of Renaissance Florence will be represented by paintings by Filippo’s son, Filippino Lippi, Botticelli’s most important student and a leading master in his own right, as well as Antonio Pollaiuolo, and portraits of Lorenzo the Magnificent and his nemesis, Fra Girolamo Savonarola.

  • Virgin Enthroned, School of Jacopo Di Cione
    The Technical and Historical Findings of an Investigation of a Fourteenth-Century Florentine Panel from the Courtauld Gallery Collection By Roxane Sperber and Anna Cooper The Conservation and Art Historical Analysis: Works from the Courtauld Gallery Project aimed to carry out technical investigation and art historical research on a gothic arched panel from the Courtauld Gallery Collection [P.1947.LF.202] (fig 1).1 The panel was undergoing conservation treatment and was thus well positioned for such investigation. The following report will outline the findings of this study. It will address the dating, physical construction, iconography, and attribution of the work, as well as the likely function of the work and the workshop decisions which contributed to its production. Dating Stylistic and iconographic characteristics indicate that this work originated in Florence and dates to the last decade of the fourteenth century. The panel is divided into two scenes; the lower scene depicts a Madonna of Humility, the Virgin seated on the ground surrounded by four standing saints, and the upper portion of the work is a Crucifixion with the Virgin and St John the Evangelist (the dolenti) seated at the cross. It is difficult to trace the precise origins of the Madonna of Humility and the Dolenti Seated at the Cross. There is no consensus as to the origins of these formats, although numerous proposals have been suggested.2 Millard Meiss proposed that the Madonna of Humility originated in Siena with a panel by Simone Martini,3 who also produced a fresco of the same subject in Avignon.4 Beth Williamson agrees that these mid fourteenth-century works were early examples of the Madonna of Humility, but suggests that the Avignon fresco came first and the panel, also produced during Martini’s time in France, was sent back to the Dominican convent in Siena, an institution to which Martini had ties.5 The Madonna of Humility gained popularity throughout the second half of the fourteenth century and into the fifteenth century.

  • An Examination of a Seventeenth- Century Copy of Raphael’S Holy Family, C.1518
    Uncovering the Original: An Examination of a Seventeenth- Century copy of Raphael’s Holy Family, c.1518. Annie Cornwell, Postgraduate in the Conservation of Easel Paintings Amalie Juel, MA Art History Uncovering the Original: An Examination of a 17th-Century copy of Raphael’s The Holy Family, c. 1518, The Prado Madrid. Introduction to The Project: This report has been written as part of the annual project Conservation and Art Historical Analysis, presented by the Sackler Research Forum at the Courtauld Institute of Art. Seeking to encourage collaboration between art historians and conservators, the scheme brings together two students - one from postgraduate art history and the other from easel paintings conservation - to complete an in-depth research project on a single piece of art. By doing so, the project allows a multifaceted approach combining historical research with technical analysis and, in this case, conservation treatment of the work in question. Focusing on the painting as a physical object with a material history, the project shows the value of combining art history with the more scientific aspects of the field of conservation. The focus of this project is a painting of the Virgin and Child with Saints Anne and John - a copy of Raphael’s Holy Family from the Prado - of unknown artist and date. It is owned by St Patrick’s Catholic Church in Wapping, where it had been recently found in a cupboard underneath the stairs. It came into the Courtauld Conservation Department to be treated by Annie Cornwell in November 2015, at which point it was in quite poor condition.
